A bargain Shiraz from top Clare Valley winery Kilikanoon.
 
On the nose there's red fruit, plum, spices, pepper and a touch of cedar.
 
The palate has dark fruit, pepper, and some meatiness. Tannins are smooth and sweet and the finish is long.
 
Bottled without fining or filtration, the wine is aged for 15 months in seasoned American oak.
